Lot count and area from the City's topographic mapping of parking-lot footprints (every visible surface lot, public or private); spaces are estimated at one per 30 m² of lot. Lots not run by Green P are private, commercial or institutional and may be for customers or residents only. Green P spaces and average daily peak occupancy from the Toronto Parking Authority's quarterly dataset (* = capacity from the 2019 car-park list; rates are not shown because that list is stale — check Green P). EV chargers are City-operated only; on-street and underground parking are not included.

Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 8-hour, Sep 1, 2020

The west leg carries the load — 4,476 eastbound vehicles, or 50% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 140. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,508 vehicles in the hour from 4:30 p.m., 42% above the morning peak from 7:45 a.m. (1,061). Heavy vehicles made up 1.5% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 6 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2020, not today's volume. It was an 8-hour count, which is not directly comparable with the 14-hour counts the City has used since September 2023.

Approach figures are vehicles entering the intersection from that leg over the whole count. A count is one day's traffic, not an annual average; the City recounts on an ad-hoc schedule.

How fast traffic moves here

Midblock speed counts on the intersection's streets, the nearest school-zone speed sign, and traffic calming

The City's counter on Eastern Ave between Cam Fella Lane and Woodward Ave (93 m away) recorded an average of 48 km/h in its 4-day count in July 2018; 85% of drivers were at or under 55 km/h. That segment carries about 14,300 vehicles a day. Woodfield Rd between Queen St E and Lane 1 N of Queen and E of Woodfield measured slower: 26 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 34 km/h (Aug 2020). The reading is 8 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Eastern Ave · Cam Fella Lane – Woodward Ave · 93 mJul 2018 · 4 days14,32548 km/h55 km/h59 km/h
Woodfield Rd · Queen St E – Lane 1 N of Queen and E of Woodfield · 220 mAug 2020 · 3 days66426 km/h34 km/h39 km/h

Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; the 85th-percentile speed is the figure engineers use — 85% of drivers were at or below it. Counts are ad hoc, so some are years old. A midblock reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data.

KSI = killed or seriously injured. A collision is counted if its recorded location is within 65 m of this intersection's centreline node, whether the police coded it as intersection-related or mid-block. Records can lag a year or more, so the current year is excluded from rankings.
